Insights from the Mahjong Game on the Third Day: Those who only stick to the rules are destined to be losers.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, I accompanied the elders in my family to play Mahjong for an afternoon.
I have a distant cousin who is a science and engineering type, and he plays cards very 'from the heart', completely according to the probability table, never being greedy for cards and never taking risks. And the result? He loses the most miserably.
Because he doesn't understand the situation, he can't see that the previous player is playing big cards, nor can he see that the opponent is fishing. He just sticks to the few dead cards in his hand and plays them rigidly.
At that time, I told him: 'The rules are fixed, but the game is dynamic. If you only have calculations without reasoning, you are just a lamb waiting to be slaughtered at the card table.'
As soon as I finished saying this, a thought suddenly flashed through my mind:
